Perhaps they could also be hidden behind advanced settings button for simplicity

This is a very good feature but could scar new users with those many options. We, osm contributors, identify those names and we understand them, but not a newbie (providing a complex website is the current osm issue). It would be interesting to have a description in a help section, pop-up, to better explain the differences.
